Peter is a principled leader who understands how to make government work for all citizens by balancing budgets, creating fair-paying jobs, protecting the environment and working to provide Vermonters with affordable quality health care. But even as President Pro Tem of the Vermont Senate, there&apos;s only so much that can be done to stave off the impact of federal cuts in Medicaid, housing, environmental protection, and so many others because of a reckless Republican leadership that gives tax cuts we can’t afford to people who don’t need them. The stakes in this 2006 election are higher then ever. With the current Republican leadership, we have the most compliant Congress in 40 years, acting as a rubber stamp for the disastrous policies of the Bush administration. Please take a moment to read the full text of Peter&apos;s announcement speech <a href="http://www.welchforcongress.com/speech">here</a> and decide for yourself whether $50, $25 or even just $10 per month is worth it to you, your family and your community to win back Democratic control of Congress and get our country back on the right track again. Thank-you for being part of the solution!
